See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I am learning how the "day people" (people who somehow are in Manhattan without day jobs but are not tourists) live. Today we went to MoMA and had TWO fashion celebrity sightings: Austin Scarlett (probably; but the fact that I'm not sure if the pale blond Yves St. Laurent/gay sailor is he is somewhat telling) and more excitingly for me, Scott Schuman, The Sartorialist! He is a tiny man.

There are like a bamillion of these in SF. How do they do it???

Today did not go as expected.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh! How do you have any idea what the Sartorialist looks like?

When I was a "day person," I was a grad student. Other options: night workers like bartenders, etc., random freelance workers who might be doing work whenever. Also: independently wealthy.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Staycation.

Sartorialist is very dashing! fittingly.

My friend I stay with in SF is one. She's a nursing student and aesthetician so she doesn't have regular 9-5 type hours. Still I'm shocked by how many people are just wandering around the Mission during the middle of a weekday.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

A lawyer friend of mine represented a girl in an ADA lawsuit against his alma mater. The president is a dick.

"Whether or not it’s fundamental for [disabled students] to get into that student union annex or that it’s fundamentally important for them to obtain an education, I would question that,” Hebert said in the deposition, which is now making the rounds on Youtube. “I’m not sure I would regard it as a high priority.”

Oh, that's classy. Fucking people.

On the flip side of "day people," I just heard about someone I know who is quitting her job and keeping her day care situation. She will have plenty of time to do stuff around town!
